So it turns out the problem wasn't with Death Gate Island, but entirely due to his personal issues.

Fortunately, she had asked around beforehand.

Qi Silin smiled and moved his chair to stand beside the girl. "I'm here to back you up. Look at that guy just now, who dares to act so arrogantly in front of you?"

Before coming, he had already inquired about the Delin family's situation. Whether it was weapons or anything else, they had improved several levels compared to before.

In the end, all the credit can only be attributed to one person.

Since the credit belongs to her, she shouldn't have to suffer the injustice.

"Now that the New Year is over, and you've been here for quite a while, with A University about to start its semester, what are your plans?"

"We need to get things sorted out here, no matter what."

Now is the crucial moment; how can she just leave like that? As for University A, Wei Huan is used to her taking leave, so he figures it should be fine this time too.

Wei Huan: "..." I've really brought in a patriarch!

The man seemed to have anticipated this outcome, and he gently patted the back of her head with his large hand. "Then I'll keep you company."

Although his efforts had a negligible effect, as long as they had an effect, it wasn't a wasted trip.

The news of Qi Lin's suspension spread throughout the entire company in just ten minutes, and the Delin family is now in chaos.

This happened so suddenly that it caught many people off guard.

"Man'er, what do you think Qiqi means by this? Why did she send Qi Lin back? Qi Lin is quite capable at the company, isn't he?"

Qing Shuang sat in the small pavilion in the backyard, feeling the coolness in the air, which helped her to clear her head a bit.

This home has already undergone changes imperceptibly.

Rongman pursed her lips, looking at the messages in the family group chat on her phone, as if she had thought of something. "I don't know, but Qiqi must have her own reasons for doing this. We can just ask her when she gets back. We're not at the company, so speculating like this isn't going to help."

Meanwhile, outside the training ground, Kesen looked at the phone that had already been hung up, then looked up at the large patch of dark clouds in the sky, his brows furrowed.

"The world has changed."

Only now did he begin to understand what Qiqi meant by what she had said earlier.

So what she said back then wasn't just casual talk; she had thought of it long ago and was only taking action now.

"Dad, is my older brother back?"

Kesen had just changed into his ordinary clothes when he arrived at the main building. Qingdie and the others were already there, seemingly waiting for something.

Qingdie looked at him and nodded. "He's in his room now, and hasn't come out since he got back. It seems like something really has happened this time."

Rongman held a cup of tea in her hand, glanced at Qi Lin's room, and drank the tea in one gulp.

"Let's stop speculating. Maybe things aren't as we think at all. Let's wait for Qiqi to come back before we talk about anything else."

She understood what everyone was thinking: a power grab? No, Qi Jiu didn't need to grab power at all. With her abilities, she didn't even care about this company.

“Yes, Qiqi must have her own reasons for doing this. It’s just a suspension, not a dismissal.” Qingyuan forced a smile from the side.

That's probably all I can say right now.

Time passed, and the sky was filled with stars. They finally waited for that person to return.

"Qiqi!"

Qing Shuang stood up, about to greet him, when she saw the man behind her and paused in surprise. "Who is this...?"

Seeing the whole family here, Qi Jiu understood the reason. She turned around and glanced at the man who was smiling at her, then focused her gaze on Kesen.

"The owner of Death Gate Island is also my boyfriend."

Kesen: "!!!" No, who is this?

Seeing Kesen's eyes wide open like saucers, the girl was in a great mood.

Didn't you say it was just wishful thinking before? Now look at it, it's absolutely mind-blowing!

Qi Silin stepped forward and said, "Hello, everyone."

“Death…Death Gate Island, the island lord?” Rong Man stared at Qi Jiu in disbelief, her mouth agape enough to fit an egg.

Is this the island owner of Death Gate Island? Her brother-in-law? So now she has another powerful figure to cling to?

The man nodded, his eyes sweeping over them. "Excuse me."

"No need to disturb, no need to disturb." Qing Shuang waved her hand and turned to the maid beside her, saying, "Quickly go and prepare the guest rooms, prepare a few more!"

All who come are guests, regardless of their status or position.

At this moment, Kesen chuckled and pulled Qi Jiu aside in front of Qi Silin.

"Are you serious, girl? Good heavens, that wasn't just wishful thinking before, you were just testing your second brother! Are you trying to scare me to death?"

If there weren't so many people in the hall, his voice would have been impossible to drown out.

This is such a huge surprise!

The girl looked completely innocent. "Didn't I say before, what if? Even if it's only one in ten thousand, there's still a chance."

Kesen: "..." Last time I said just in case, and this time you've brought the person back?

They probably already kidnapped him!

"But little sister, about big brother's matter..."

When Qi Lin was mentioned, Qi Jiu's smile faded considerably. She looked at the people in the hall and pursed her lips.

"Everyone should know about Qi Lin's situation, and now you're all waiting for me to come back and give you an explanation. I think you're also wondering why he was suspended from his post, so let me explain."

Qingyuan looked at her with a somewhat solemn expression.

The girl slammed the documents in her hand onto Qi Silin and then took a folder from Liu Yun's hand.

"Lin Yan, call Qi Lin out of his room."

In the meeting room in the side building, Qingdie seemed impatient. "Qiqi, can I ask if Qilin did something wrong? I can make him change. That kid, sometimes he has a bad temper, but Qiqi, don't take it to heart."

The girl shook her head. "Uncle, don't worry. Let's wait for Qi Lin to arrive before we talk about it."

Rongman sat in her seat, watching the girl rest with her eyes closed. She pursed her lips, turned around and whispered to Qingshuang.

"Mom, don't say anything for a while, just watch my expression."

She had a feeling that what was about to happen was no small matter.

Is she being too sensitive? Qiqi used to call Qilin "Big Brother" at home, but now she calls him by his full name.

After an unknown amount of time, the door to the room was finally pushed open.

Qi Lin had already changed out of his suit and took a deep breath after seeing the person in the main seat.

What's meant to happen will happen; running away won't solve anything.

Although he thought so too, he seemed to be running away ever since he returned to the manor.
